The Classics are always the best

It was truly a Sunglasses day earlier in the week and here I am wearing my oversized Tom Fords that I have had for a few years.
I think now I have tried to go more classic and minimal with my fashion choices I would like my sunglasses to reflect that also. I have the Rayban Wayfarer on my wish list and annoyingly had a pair many moons ago......I think they got left in the glove compartment of my 1st ever car that I sold..... my little silver 106......you see classics never date!
I would like a pair for my holidays and when I start the school run full time in September when N starts Reception ......I have already spotted other mummies sporting sunglasses at 8.30 am come rain or shine as they can hide a multitude of sins or lack of make up. Here is Elle Macpherson on what must be the most glamorous school gate ever, can you imagine - Elle, Stella, Claudia and now David and Victoria!!

Of course I have included the Raybans below in my picks with other designer glasses and high street bargains at just £10,
Do you like the wayfarer or have another favoured pair or shape of shades??
As ever thanks for reading,

I like the wayfarer but don't think they suit me but I recently tried on and have bought the Justin, similar but a better style for me (Havana Rubber available at John Lewis). They arrive tomorrow yippee!
ReplyDeleteoh I will have to look at that style, I have noticed doing this post there are a few different wayfarer styles....x
DeleteUnfortunately, I don't really get on with glasses or sunglasses though not for want of trying. I just don't have the nose bridge to hold a pair up which is so annoying as I invariably end up with cheek dints. I'm thinking of buying a sun visor and pretending it's all part of the sports luxe trend.
ReplyDeleteI am joking you know Annmarie :o)
And that's a lovely photo of you - your mum's getting better with the camera :o)
DeleteI dear you to do the sun visor ...... he he, you could get the bands that go around your head like the skiers use?? I am only joking of course here also Sue, bless you. Yes my Mum is getting better. x
DeleteAh...a beautiful outfit there, you are so right, classics are the best. Looking fantastic.
ReplyDeleteI want some wayfarers too, making do with Fendi bargain from TK maxx in the meantime... Xx
Thank you Ash, there are some gems in good old TK maxx isn't there. x
DeleteGorgeous classic outfit Annemarie. I love my wayfarers....they always remind me of Audrey Hepburn and you can't get much more classic than that! xx
ReplyDeletetrue true Michelle. x
DeleteI have a pair of Ralph Lauren that are similar to the Wayfarers just less angled, which suit my face more. Love your outfit post Annmarie.

thank you Jane, yes I think I am going to go for the 4140 style wayfarer which have more of a bigger lense which will suit me better. x
DeleteSuch a chic look, I love your tom ford sunglasses classic and beautiful. I have wayfarers and I have a love/hate relationship with them, I love how they look but hate how heavy they are on my nose! X
ReplyDeleteI do like my Tom Fords which are nice and light. I did have a pair of Chanels that were heavy and left dents in the side of my nose..... which wasn't a good look. x
DeleteI love sunglasses although I haven't bought a pair since the summer of 2012, Chanel with chain arms, almost 400 quid so they have to last a few years yet!
ReplyDeletethey sound nice,,,,, my previous two pairs of sunnies were Chanel. x
DeleteIt is an incredible school run. I have purchased the Ray Ban Justins ( naff name ) they are slightly bigger than trad ones. Better for my face shape. I love your look, today, it is a complete classic. xx
ReplyDeleteI know some school run...... Somebody else as mentioned the Justins need to check them out also before I purchase. x
